Yes I still have a point, because that's not what happened. My point is about reality, it's not hypothetical.

Argentina has repeatedly cheated, and even when they aren't cheating themselves FIFA is cheating on their behalf as in the case of the Egypt game this year.

But even if you say that's not real, there are enough verified cases of cheating beyond the hand of god. I mean Maradona admitted Argentina drugged opponents' water bottles with rohypnil... Peru agreed to throw a game that Argentina needed to win with +4 goal difference on the condition that Argentina tortured some Peruvian dissidents, etc.

Guy's career also ended when he was caught using PEDs. Consistent cheater on a team that consistently cheats.


I posted a vid where soccer legends tell you what they think of Maradona. That's as real as it gets.

Unanimously they call him the greatest player of his era maybe the greatest player of all time.

If you want to know what people think of Trumps intervention you can ask google about it but you prolly don't want to go there ;)


Soccer has a very minimal following here,. doubt that will change much in the future. There is zero chance that we could fill a FIFA stadium without immigrants & foreign travelers coming here to watch the games.

Kids here grow up playing baseball/hockey/football/basketball. Soccer is a distant 5th choice. We'll never be the best at soccer because of this dynamic.

The NHL however is growing it's USA fan base exponentially, with youth hockey 100x more popular than it was 30 years ago.


That's all understood. But if people post that Maradona is a cheater while Trump just pulled the ultimate cheat in full view well you're asking for it.

Anyway tell me why Trump did this if no one cares about soccer in the US. Looks like he cares amiright


How did your country do in the world cup?


Aww still upset :(

Dear FIFA can you please help this guy out by sending him a participation trophy of some sort.

Hope this helps :)

Well, no, all that stuff I listed(and there's more) that Maradona did and was complicit in is way worse than what trump did. Lol they were literally using date-rape drugs on players from other teams... Maybe it's a cultural difference between America and Russia, but over here that's considered a bit worse than a phone call

I have nothing to be upset about. The US performed better than ever.
You won't tell us how your country did in the world cup, most likely they couldn't even qualify.



Haha.

Lol... You couldn't be coming into this argument with any greater ignorance.

Russia had their intelligence agencies switching blood/urine samples to cover up PED use of drugs that were state-provided when they hosted the Olympics in 2014. Again, way worse than what you're complaining about here. Pretending they have a moral high ground on this(or literally any other) issue is moronic.

Where do I state or pretend that the Russians have a moral high ground? The moral high ground is entirely reserved for NAFO bots as we all know.

You brought up the Russians out of nowhere, in fact you bring up something new and even weirder every time you reply.

I brought up Russians because I'm still operating under the assumption that you're Russian in spite of your protests. The context makes that obvious, maybe it's a language barrier thing but I don't know how to type with those backwards Rs and all the other goofy symbols you guys use.

You said "Now try making a deal with Russia (or China) they just got confirmation that the US simply cannot be trusted,". I don't want to have to tell you what your own words mean, but yes, you did pretend that Russia has the moral high ground in this case. As I showed you, that is not the case.
